Serves you right for having a transfer budget (Blackburn ) I'm on a 7 match unbeaten run but every game's been a draw

Wut?

In real life, Blackburn have to sell players before they can buy, so I shouldn't have thought it would be any different in FM!

I know but

Transfer Budget: £0

for all expectations grates when even Burnely splashed out a couple of million on a player in the transfer window. I've spent the season trying to gather up enough funds for the signing on fee that pederson requires for a contract extension

New Arsenal away kit:-

[Hank Scorpio]

Awaits the comparisons with Brazil because they both play in yellow.

Looks like Brazil's kit, because they both play in yellow.

It's not as if this is Arsenal's first yellow away kit.

Where in that did I say it was ?

[Preezy]

That is actually a very nice kit.

If a little Brazilian.

I do like it, and I will be getting it, because we haven't had a yellow and red one before (and I like yellow and red as a colour combination). The sleeves look a bit tight though...

There's this little thing called implication. To me, your post read like this: 'Now Arsenal play in yellow, all the pundits who wank off over their attacking football will start comparing them to Brazil', as if Arsenal have never played in yellow before. But they have, and have you ever heard them being compared to Brazil? Me neither.

Looks like Watford

strawberry float's sake Hull, stop copying Brazil's 1919 kit design!

[Saint of Killers]

...and have you ever heard them being compared to Brazil?

Yes. Not by Arsenal fans, but yeah, back when Arse were on one of their unbeaten runs all you'd hear/read* is it's like watching Brazil.

*Slight exaggeration but they were compared, yup.

I was joking by the way.

Just received my football shirt that I ordered off http://www.aiizstore.com/cart/default.asp. I placed the order on the 27th of May so it only took 19 days which isn't too bad.

And I have to say, I was dubious about the probable quality of the shirt, but it looks 100% genuine, which means it's probably stolen

How much was it?
